Oh, yeah, and Best Buy sells several distros for <1/2 what M$ Windows uprades
are. Caldera, SuSe, Redhat, Mandrake, Slackware, etc...
It's neat, b/c Widows takes up this huge chunk of the aisle, you have little or no
choice as to which Windows you want, and right next door are 1/2 as many Linux
distros, but w/ greater variety and flexibility... I always bump into people at
the book or computer store under the Unix/Linux section and start talking about
Linux.
